- Comment on Strategic battlefield defeat would be end of Russia's statehood, Putin claims 1 week ago:
And the world would be better for it
- Comment on Are all phone calls voip (voice over Internet protocol) now? 1 month ago:
They are switching off the copper network in NZ. Suburb by suburb at the moment. But 87% have fibre, up to 8Gb/s to the home.
- Comment on When will "Star Wars: A New Hope" enter public domain? 5 months ago:
The despecialized edition uses a ton of cleaned up shots that don’t change in a story sense but have grain and wires and other compositing errors cleaned up. These are new works. Even the VHS release and any HD releases could be considered new works as the colour and sound would have been tweaked for each format. The best thing to do would be to find an original film print and have it scanned. Anything else would push the clock back.
- Comment on If so-called AI is basically just Large Language Models, how come predictive text on my phone is bollock-useless? 6 months ago:
A pre trained model isn’t going to learn how you type the more you use it. Though with Microsoft owning SwiftKey, I imagine they will try it soon
- Comment on Does anyone feel like an actual adult? 7 months ago:
It’s being at home with my PlayStation and my own music and all my silly purchases that makes me feel most like a child.
Funnily enough it’s travelling when I feel like an adult.
- Comment on Why do they use large video cameras on TV? 8 months ago:
A shoulder mounted camera with lots of mass is easier to get stable footage from, it doesn’t wobble around like a small handheld
- Comment on Why do they use large video cameras on TV? 8 months ago:
It’s all digital these days, pro cameras have hot swappable ssd drives so you can record to 2 drives at once for backup, or record endlessly

The crust is about 45km ish thick where you are. Get digging!
- Comment on What’s the purpose of 3D printing in ABS vs other more modern filaments? 10 months ago:
Also abs gives off poisonous styrine vapours you must vent the fumes outside.
- Comment on Is it medically safe to you a butt plug made with PETG plastic? 10 months ago:
For single use, sure there’s food safe grade petg. However there’s tiny pores between layers that would make it impossible to fully clean. There are lacquer sprays, also food grade for sealing prints or print in asa or abs and vapour smooth it. Happy butt stuffing.
- Comment on Is there a way for me to upload my rifd Keycard to my smartphone? 10 months ago:
Yes it does at least for the system my building uses
- Comment on what is the procedure of buying a ship load of any cargo? ex; corn or paraffin wax? 10 months ago:
They went through several barrels in the lord of the rings movies, think birthing orcs.
- Comment on I have just joined lemmy. What should I do next? 10 months ago:
Make a cup of tea
